Proposed Modification of Class E Airspace; Saratoga, WY, 24805-24807 [2021-09339]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 88 / Monday, May 10, 2021 / Proposed Rules excluded. The FAA proposes to delete the airway segment between the Sault Ste Marie, MI, VOR/DME and the Sudbury, ON, Canada, VOR/DME, and the exclusionary language. The resulting airway would extend between the Ironwood, MI, VOR/DME and the Sawyer, MI, VOR/DME. V–180: V–180 currently extends between the International Falls, MN, VOR/DME and the Dryden, ON, Canada, NDB. The airspace within Canada is excluded. The FAA proposes to remove the airway in its entirety. All radials in the VOR Federal airway descriptions below are unchanged and stated in True degrees. VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph 6010(a) of FAA Order 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020, and effective September 15, 2020, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The VOR Federal airways listed in this document would be subsequently updated in the next edition of this Order. FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, is published yearly and effective on September 15. Regulatory Notices and Analyses The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. It, therefore: (1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant rule’’ under Department of Transportation (DOT) Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this proposed rule, when promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PROPOSALS Environmental Review 1.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11E, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated July 21, 2020, and effective September 15, 2020. FAA Order 7400.11E is publicly available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11E lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and reporting points. The Proposal The FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 by modifying the Class E airspace, extending upward from 700 feet above the surface, at Shively Field Airport, Saratoga, WY. This airspace is designed to contain IFR departures to 1,200 feet above the surface and IFR arrivals descending below 1,500 feet above the surface. To properly contain arriving and departing IFR aircraft, the radius south of the airport should be reduced from 6.9 miles to 5 miles. The radius north of the airport should increase from 6.9 miles to 7.3 miles. Also, the area extending north of the airport should be increased to properly contain IFR aircraft performing a procedure turn maneuver for the NDB–A Approach. This action also proposes to remove the Class E airspace extending upward from 1,200 feet above the surface. This airspace area is wholly contained within the Denver en route airspace and duplication is not necessary. Further, this action proposes to remove the Saratoga NDB and the Cherokee VOR/DME from the Class E’s text header and airspace description. The navigational aids (NAVAIDs) are not needed to define the airspace and removal of the NAVAIDs simplifies the airspace’s description. Lastly, the action proposes administrative updates to the airspace’s text header. The city name should be removed from the second line of the text header, and the airport’s geographic coordinates on the third line of the text header should be updated to ‘‘lat. 41°26′37″ N, long. 106°49′39″ W’’ to match the FAA database. Class E5 airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020, and effective September 15, 2020, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1.

See the ‘‘Public Participation and Request for Comments’’ portion of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further instructions on submitting comments. DATES: The Fifth Coast Guard District has been been notified of three fireworks displays planned throughout the Maryland-National Capital Region to commemorate the July 4th holiday. Hazards from these fireworks displays include accidental discharge of fireworks, dangerous projectiles, and falling hot embers or other debris. To respond to these hazards, the Coast Guard plans to establish temporary safety zones to protect the nearby public. 1. The Sherwood Forest Club, Inc., of Sherwood Forest, MD, plans to conduct a fireworks display from 9:20 p.m. to 9:50 p.m. on July 3, 2021. The fireworks are to be launched from the end of the Sherwood Forest Club main pier, located adjacent to the Severn River, approximately 200 yards east of Brewer Pond in Sherwood Forest, MD. In the event of inclement weather, the fireworks display will be scheduled for July 5, 2021. The COTP MarylandNational Capital Region has determined that potential hazards associated with the fireworks to be used in this display would be a safety concern for anyone within 150 yards of the fireworks discharge site. 2. Queen Anne’s County Government, of Centreville, MD, plans to conduct a fireworks display from 10 p.m. to 10:20 PO 00000 Frm 00058 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 24807 p.m. on July 4, 2021. The fireworks are to be launched from Kent Island along the Kent Island Narrows (North Approach) in Chester, MD. In the event of inclement weather, the fireworks display will be scheduled for July 5, 2021. The COTP Maryland-National Capital Region has determined that potential hazards associated with the fireworks to be used in this display would be a safety concern for anyone within 800 feet of the fireworks discharge site. 3. The Independence Day Commission of Havre de Grace, MD, plans to conduct a fireworks display from 9:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. on July 4, 2021. The fireworks are to be launched from a fireworks barge located in the Susquehanna River, approximately 300 yards southeast of Concord Point in Havre de Grace, MD. In the event of inclement weather, the fireworks display will be scheduled for July 5, 2021. The COTP Maryland-National Capital Region has determined that potential hazards associated with the fireworks to be used in this display would be a safety concern for anyone within 200 yards of the fireworks barge. The Coast Guard is requesting that interested parties provide comments within a shortened comment period of 15 days instead of the typical 30 days for this notice of proposed rulemaking. The Coast Guard believes a shortened comment period is necessary and reasonable to ensure the Coast Guard has time to review and respond to any significant comments submitted by the public in response to this NPRM and has a final rule in effect in time for the first scheduled event. The Coast Guard is proposing this rulemaking under authority in 46 U.S.C. 70034 (previously 33 U.S.C. 1231). III. Discussion of Proposed Rule The COTP is proposing to establish three temporary safety zones for certain navigable waters within the COTP Maryland-National Capital Region Zone, as described in 33 CFR 3.25–15, and would be enforced during the times described below for each zone. The first safety zone would be enforced from 8:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. on July 3, 2021, or if necessary due to inclement weather, from 8:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. on July 5, 2021. The safety zone would cover all navigable waters of the Severn River, within 150 yards of a fireworks discharge site located at the end of Sherwood Forest Club main pier in approximate position latitude 39°01′54.0″ N, longitude 076°32′41.8″ W, Sherwood Forest, MD.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11E, Airspace 
Designations and Reporting Points, dated July 21, 2020, and effective 
September 15, 2020. FAA Order 7400.11E is publicly available as listed 
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11E lists 
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and 
reporting points.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 by modifying 
the Class E airspace, extending upward from 700 feet above the surface, 
at Shively Field Airport, Saratoga, WY. This airspace is designed to 
contain IFR departures to 1,200 feet above the surface and IFR arrivals 
descending below 1,500 feet above the surface. To properly contain 
arriving and departing IFR aircraft, the radius south of the airport 
should be reduced from 6.9 miles to 5 miles. The radius north of the 
airport should increase from 6.9 miles to 7.3 miles. Also, the area 
extending north of the airport should be increased to properly contain 
IFR aircraft performing a procedure turn maneuver for the NDB-A 
Approach.
    This action also proposes to remove the Class E airspace extending 
upward from 1,200 feet above the surface. This airspace area is wholly 
contained within the Denver en route airspace and duplication is not 
necessary.
    Further, this action proposes to remove the Saratoga NDB and the 
Cherokee VOR/DME from the Class E's text header and airspace 
description. The navigational aids (NAVAIDs) are not needed to define 
the airspace and removal of the NAVAIDs simplifies the airspace's 
description.
    Lastly, the action proposes administrative updates to the 
airspace's text header. The city name should be removed from the second 
line of the text header, and the airport's geographic coordinates on 
the third line of the text header should be updated to ``lat. 
41[deg]26'37'' N, long. 106[deg]49'39'' W'' to match the FAA database.
    Class E5 airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of 
FAA Order 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020, and effective September 15, 
2020, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E 
airspace designations listed in this document will be published 
subsequently in the Order.
    FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, is 
published yearly and effective on September 15.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an 
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and 
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current, is 
non-controversial, and unlikely to result in adverse or negative 
comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' 
under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under 
DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 
1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation 
as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter 
that will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is 
certified that this rule, when promulgated, would not have a 
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities 
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in 
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies 
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.
